* HundredPercentCompletion: Every mercenary you recruit will appear in the big party at the end of the game. To get everyone to appear, you have to recruit every single mercenary (some of whom may be [[PermanentlyMissableContent unobtainable]] if you didn't recruit them the first time you go through the area they're in). While this doesn't actually unlock anything special, it does add a bit to the ending since every merc has something unique to say to the party.%%* AllInARow

* {{Bishonen}}: Zaygos turns out to be one.** Also Duke, the LetsPlay even nicknames him "Duchess" to play on it. [[spoiler: It turns out there's a [[TheMole very good reason for this.]]]]

* HistoryRepeats: It's shown during the time travel episode that the conflict between Chezni, Midia, and Zaygos over Dal Gren is a repetition of the events that happened between Kormu, Sophie, and Gabnid 1000 years ago. Chezni and Midia are explicitly indicated to be the successors to Kormu and Sophie, and Zaygos and Gabnid share the same attack pattern as bosses.

* HistoryRepeats: It's shown during the time travel episode that the conflict between Chezni, Midia, and Zaygos over Dal Gren is a repetition of the events that happened between Kormu, Sophie, and Gabnid 1000 years ago. Chezni and Midia are explicitly indicated to be the successors to Kormu and Sophie, and Zaygos claims to be the reincarnation of Gabnid; he and Gabnid even share the same attack pattern as bosses.

Reason: Zaygos proclaims himself to be the reincarnation of Gabnid IIRC (nobody but you knows that Gabnid was evil.)

* ApocalypticLog: The first hint you have that [[spoiler:Gabnid was the BigBad of his generation is when you come across an ancient laboratory deep underground and find some of these left by Sophie.]]* AerithAndBob: The three immortals who founded civilization on Lennus are named Gabnid, Kormu, and... Sophie.

* LostTechnologyLostTechnology: At one point in the game, you have to go on a quest for some ancient, powerful weapons that will let you defeat a dangerous enemy. One of them turns out to be [[spoiler:a rocket launcher.]]

* SwordOfPlotAdvancementSwordOfPlotAdvancement: The Sword of Kormu. Twice. [[spoiler:And you ultimately don't get to use it for the purpose you originally intended, since it breaks the first time you fight Zaygos with it.]]

* [[spoiler:StableTimeLoop]]StableTimeLoop: [[spoiler:The undead-looking dragon you meet early on in the game, who woke up when you removed the Sword of Kormu from his body and carries you to the southern continent before dying? He recognized you because you were the one to seal him in the past, ten-thousand years ago. With the Sword of Kormu, of course.]]

Added DiffLines:

* WeWillMeetAgain: [[spoiler:Strabo says this after you seal him using the sword of Kormu in the past. Because of the StableTimeLoop involved, you ''already'' met him again in gameplay by the time this happens.]]

* VillainWithGoodPublicity: [[spoiler:At the start of the game, Gabnid is worshiped along with the other two founders as the one who brought wisdom to Lennus. Sort of, but that leaves off the important detail where he went insane with power and tried to murder everyone.]]

* DifficultySpike: Once you reach the southern continent. Medicine suddenly costs four times as much, most enemies are now highly resistant to fire (which is your best element), and the mercenaries available tend to be few in number, often with severe drawbacks.
